How to Prepare an IELTS Listening Test. IELTS stands for international
English language testing system and it consists of four components, which are,
writing, listening, reading and speaking. Right now, I would like to discuss
more about the listening segment. Personally, I believe that the segment of
listening is somewhat easy yet confusing. It is easy because as long as the
candidates really pay attention to the audio, they can easily get the correct
answers. It is also confusing because every speaker in the given audio does not
always have the same voice, tone or accent, and for some students, especially
the international ones, it can be quite difficult for them to comprehend what
the speaker is talking about.

First and foremost, I would like
to inform that IELTS listening has four sections and more often than not, they
are in the structures of multiple choice, map, table or form, and summary.

When a contender enters the
examination room, he or she must be prepared to concentrate their brain and
hearing. This is not only for the audio itself because most of the time, the
examiner might give candidates rules and regulation that they need to adhere
to. Never wander nor dwell because these two reasons will inhibit the
participants’ performance while taking the test.

The first task that candidates
have to do after the listening papers have been distributed is to read all the
instructions provided. After that, it is a must for every candidate to
understand the questions and information given. Candidates are advisable to
underline and know every key word they can find because keywords are the words
that will help them to find possible answers. Candidates are also encouraged to
predict every potential answer between questions or fill in the blanks. It is
also very important for them to recognize the paraphrases, because there will
be a lot of words, phrases and sentences that have the same meanings but when
one breaks it down, those words might be foreign to beginners. In order to excel
this listening examination, focusing minds and ears is a duty every contender
must perform.
